That’s my bro-in-laws 2002 next to mine. I put some Bilstien 4600 shocks in it after he helped me with my bumper. That truck was the reason I got mine. I had seen multiple trucks online with the 4th gen bumper. I liked how they looked. Having this one given to me I figured I’d try it. My original bumper was a little tweaked back when I bought it. I had to put self tappers in the plastics to hold them on.

You need to get a sports grill for it. This is what mine looked like before I put the sports grill on it. This is the regular grill. Everything is black but if you zoom in you can see the gap The sports grill I got was about 1 3/4 “ taller from top to bottom. and was thicker.

I’ve had this bumper sitting in my backyard for a few months. Decided to finally put it on. Got the brackets off eBay for $30. Nice powder coated 1/4” thick. Picked up some 1/2” carriage bolts and locking nuts from the local hardware store. Also grabbed a sports grill off eBay for $100. $22 for the emblem and a can of satin black paint. Had to drill 4 wholes in the lower part of the grill frame. Added some spacers from a tv wall mount kit. For the gap between the mount and grill.

Congratulations you two!

That thing was smoked! Should run like a top now.

Good to know. I’ll readjust it tomorrow.

Got it put in today. It’s pretty hefty. It has a polyurethane bushing. Changed out the drivers tie rod I’ve had in the garage for about a year while I was down there. Truck seems to handle better. Glad I got it done. Did a driveway alignment. 1/4” toe in. Centered the axle. Thanks again @Tractorman

My exhaust system has a drone around 2000-2200 RPM while towing. I need to see if they make one of those in 4X4” in and out.

Will do. Thanks again!

Thank you just what I’m looking for! A million mile warranty. That’ll outlast the truck and me! Well I ordered it today. Should be here by Saturday.

I’m looking into those as well.

The front end parts on my truck are only a few years old. Moog. I put a 1” leveling kit on it. The front end is slightly off center. That’s why I am looking at an adjustable track bar. For the price of a Thuren or Carly I can live with it for now. 😆

Very true
